Wired Equivalent Protocol (WEP) can be used to protect data as it is transmitted over the
wireless network, but it provides no protection past the SonicWALL. It is designed to provide a
minimal level of protection for transmitted data, and is not recommended for network
deployments requiring a high degree of security. WiFiSec should be enabled in addition to WEP
for added security on the wireless network.

for added security on the wireless network.
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) provides much greater security than WEP, but
requires a separate authentication protocol, such as RADIUS, be used to authenticate all users.
WPA uses a dynamic key that constantly changes, as opposed to the static key that WEP uses.

The SonicWALL Secure Anti-Virus Router provides a number of permutations of WEP and
